Posted November 8, 2024Nov 8 Margaritaville is coming to PC2! You can keep track of the progress here and even check out the park in game as I build it! More pics soon!
November 10, 2024Nov 10 It's 5 o'clock somewhere. I am excited to see this develop as we all dive into PC2. The coaster looks real smooth and is a classic coaster.

I'm excited to see where it goes too now that we have water parks as well! Had the day off today, so really pushed the limit with this park today! I experimented with the new pathing system and boy it is the best!!!! Even with RCT3 path covers, never could I reach this look! The park is now 50% completed! Be sure to check it out in the workshop!!! https://workshop.frontierstore.net/mod/item/7434810586940924446

November 11, 2024Nov 11 Happy to see this project move onto PlanCo2! Landshark Lounge looks beautiful! there's this illusion of the reality, but it's not really really real, like it's beside and inside and inside and beside, but never on top.. nevermind, just kidding but not really
November 11, 2024Nov 11 The underwater scene in the Tidal Wave video threw me for a loop. I wondered, "Did the train go off the track?!?!". But no, just a bit of artsy camera work.

That was actually unintentional lol ------------------------------------------------------------ Barracuda is now open at Margaritaville! Also future expansion slowly working its way back!
November 14, 2024Nov 14 I like that action shot with the Barracuda train coming at us. Unfortunately, the photographer gave his life to get that shot. Until I watched the video, I didn't realize how complicated this coaster is: Reversing the direction and switching the track. Edited November 14, 2024Nov 14 by JB
November 14, 2024Nov 14 I also like that you protect the riders under canopies during the track switches

Until I watched the video, I didn't realize how complicated this coaster is: Reversing the direction and switching the track. Yes so in the RCT3 version, I used a custom jr coaster, I forget who created it, but basically it was a boomerang coaster in RCT3. So in this revision of the ride, it kinda goes back to its roots in the sense that it goes backwards once again for part of the ride. 2 hours ago, Wowman said: I love the look of the coaster (and those coaster cars) 2 hours ago, Wowman said: I also like that you protect the riders under canopies during the track switches yes I love that I added that as a detail. Will be going around to each ride and do a “summer heat” update to help protect guests from the hot summer sun while in the heat especially since that is a feature and thing we have to keep track of now in PC2.
November 16, 2024Nov 16 At first glance my eyes picked out that most of the palm trees in the first couple of screens were all about the same height and I wondered if a few shouldn't be scaled differently to add a little variety...but then it dawned on me that I had seem fields of palms that were exactly like that - most all of them the same size. Here outside of São Paulo we have large plots of land where they grow bananas and palms for palm hearts, there's lot's of road-side vendors selling whole bunches of bananas and canned palm hearts, and the trees are all pretty much exactly the same height, which your eye notices. So those first couple screens actually look very authentic! The rest of your foliage is very lush and natural too. Love the screenshot, those are just gorgeous shots. You're making great progress so far! Edited November 16, 2024Nov 16 by Wabigbear

I’ve always enjoyed making ponds and gardens so I’m able to really let that part of me flow with this park. 3 hours ago, Wabigbear said: At first glance my eyes picked out that most of the palm trees in the first couple of screens were all about the same height and I wondered if a few shouldn't be scaled differently to add a little variety...but then it dawned on me that I had seem fields of palms that were exactly like that - most all of them the same size.

You're making great progress so far! The biggest help to this is the forest painting tool. It is such a heaven send. It makes it so much easier to make more natural looking forests compared to placing trees down one at a time at different angles. I look forward to working on Danger Island! I can only imagine how much better it is going to look in this new game!!
November 19, 2024Nov 19 Author The pools are now open! Probably one of the more difficult things to work on, especially with the lag I experienced. Anyway here they are! Hopefully the fixes coming to the game will have ease the lag and then I can revisit the pool area but for the time being I went ahead and used mostly prebuilts for now other than the giant pool and tthe lazy river. The park is now 90% complete! Just need to add some little doo dads here and there (lag permitting of course)!!!
November 19, 2024Nov 19 I love how the lazy river flows all around, and through, the pool complex. I can't help but think that if this were RCT3, the peeps would all be complaining "I want to get off Lazy River!" at about the halfway point.
November 19, 2024Nov 19 Author New better entrance!!!! The Park is now open and ready for visitors!!! 100% Completed! This park will continue to improve as updates and DLC become available! Download Here: https://workshop.frontierstore.net/mod/item/7434810586940924446
November 25, 2024Nov 25 Author Did some touch up details on the park today! Attempted to put a more Key West color pallette into Carnival World area as well as create new ride signs! Cheers!
